1080p via Component!

 

As a former plasma owner, I do say this is an outstanding picture for the price along with the connection options this deal was hard to pass up. Maybe not the best picture but it is WELL worth $329.99 even $499.99 (glad I spent $329.99)some people even...

What's great about it: Easy to set up great value and features for the price, right number of connections, easy to use remote control, 1080p via Component

What's not so great: I would say sound if I had to say something but really, upgrade to surround sound with the money you saved on this TV. Internet Connectable? No
